ARK News.. The Kurdish National Council in Syria (KNC) has issued a statement condemning the killing of Ismail Fattah, a member of its General Secretariat.

Below is the statement:

Statement to Public Opinion

On January 16, the family of Mr. Ismail Fattah, a member of the Kurdish National Council in Syria from the Chil Agha area of Derik, reported his disappearance. After searching for him, they discovered that he had been detained by the security forces of the PYD administration. On January 19, those same forces announced that Mr. Fattah's body had been found in rural Tel Tamr.

The Kurdish National Council strongly condemns this heinous crime that claimed the life of the activist Ismail Fattah. We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, loved ones, and the members of the Kurdish National Council KNC. Mr. Fattah worked diligently and fought tirelessly in defense of the Kurdish cause.

This brutal act during such a critical period is a deliberate attempt to undermine efforts to build trust and achieve Kurdish unity in this sensitive phase. We hold the security forces affiliated with the PYD administration and the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) accountable for this crime. We call on them to take full responsibility by disclosing the details of this incident to the public and bringing the perpetrators to justice.
